Empowerment, the individual’s own power, belief in knowledge and power to influence their own situation in society, are the main characteristics of the activities in Resource Centres for Women. The Handbook is designed to provide knowledge about what is needed to start and run and develop local and/or regional Resource Centres for Women. 

The Handbook is to be published in the first instance on the Internet and can be updated and added to on a continuous basis.
